Growing interest in predictive maintenance and closer ties to global clients' subsidiaries support I-care's expansion across the region

MONS, Belgium, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- I-care, the global leader in predictive maintenance and reliability solutions, today announced the strengthening of its presence in Brazil as a foundation for further growth across Latin America. I-care aims to deepen relationships with the regional subsidiaries of existing international clients while developing new business across Latin America. The region has large industrial operations across mining, food and beverage, chemicals, oil and gas, and pulp and paper.    

As industrial players across these sectors look to improve operational performance at scale, interest in predictive maintenance is growing. I-care aims to address this growing need by combining its wireless vibration sensors, AI-driven software, and human expertise to support local industrial maintenance teams in complex operating environments.

"Reinforcing our local presence in Brazil, with a dedicated local team, means giving our international clients a predictive maintenance solution that combines global scale with on-the-ground expertise," said Maxime Limbourg, Chief Growth Officer. "This region is central to our growth strategy, and strengthening our foundation in Brazil will allow us to support existing clients more closely while developing new opportunities across Latin America."

To lead I-care's development in the region, Côme Lainé has been appointed Regional Development Manager, LATAM. An industrial engineer with experience in industrial processes, technical B2B sales, and business development in Brazil, Côme brings both operational and commercial experience to the role, along with an understanding of the industrial and technical challenges faced by I-care's clients.

I-care's subscription model suits industrial companies looking to deploy predictive maintenance while managing upfront investment. Its experience in Brazil also helps customers navigate local logistical and fiscal requirements, including hardware imports and the country's tax framework.

"Brazil is a very diverse and complex market," said Côme. "We are now strengthening our presence on the ground, with the opportunity to develop our business here by bringing global-scale technology together with local expertise."
